Aquaman 2: Patrick Wilson Doesn't Think Orm Will Be Main Villain of Sequel

"I assume they’re gonna keep him in some kind of jail below the surface."

Patrick Wilson, who portrayed Orm (aka the Ocean Master) in Aquaman, says he doesn’t believe Orm will be the main villain of Aquaman 2.

Reported by SyFy Wire, Wilson made this claim during an event promoting The Art and Making of Aquaman in New Jersey.

"He’s not gonna be a main villain in another movie," said Wilson. "I don’t think Orm ends up in Belle Reve like he does in the New 52. I assume they’re gonna keep him in some kind of jail below the surface. If [director James Wan] wants me back, I’m certainly happy to come back.”

On top of this, Wilson said of his character "I don’t know what the future holds for Orm… You can’t kill him. He’s too important to [Arthur’s] journey… he’s a foil to [his character].” By the time the credits rolled on Aquaman, Orm’s life is spared by his half-brother and he is subsequently arrested.
